Almost every time I come out of a bricks-and-mortar media shop, I find myself empty-handed and running teary-eyed back into the warm, loving arms of the adequately-stocked, sensibly-priced internet. This lunchtime's trip to HMV to not find the Blu-ray I was looking for (Fantastic Mr. Fox, in case you're so interested) turned out thusly. Only this time I didn't come out entirely empty-handed.
Above: There was another one too, priced somewhere in the mid-20s, but I couldn't get it in frame without dropping all of the boxes/growing a little helper out of my chest like that guy in Total Recall
Come on guys, I know you've announced that you're pulling out of the games market a bit, but you're not even trying now.
Do you shop at HMV (or any other offline games vendor) on anything like a regular basis? Have you seen any spectacular cock elevations such as this? And if you don't use real, 3D shops, is this ballsed-up pricing structure the sort of thing that puts you off?
